Yummy Project!

This small project I'm sharing today is mouth watering.. literally! It's a zipper pouch I made for the Sew Pouch Swap. Participants are to send their assigned person a pouch filled with candy. Being a chocoholic how could I resist.

Here's the pouch I made.

I decide to try out a couple things.. the pleats:

And darts in the bottom for some depth

It looks like a usual "square bottomed" bottom, but the fabric was cut with curved corners

And darts added before assembling

The end product wasn't exactly how I pictured it and the zipper corners could have been a bit better ,but hopefully the contents make up for the flaws!

I love the look of the pleated pouches. I was thinking of doing something like that for my swap pouch, but went with felt in the end. Will have to add a project like this to my list though ;-)Consider me your newest follower :)
